Saturday nights should be about rubbish food and easy watching TV with the family.
With number four’s allergies the biggest no no is pizza so instead of ordering a big greasy takeaway we love to get the kids involved and make our own pizzas so that number four doesn’t get to miss out on the fun.
This allergy friendly pizza crust recipe is fine for the whole family but to be honest the others prefer a normal base.
We let the children chose which topping they like and let them get on and get creative.
Here is my pizza crust recipe if you fancy giving it a go:
Allergy Friendly Pizza Crust
- 450g Wheat Free Flour
- 3/4tsp Xanthan Gum
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/2tsp Baking Powder
- 1tsp Sugar
- 1tbsp Yeast
- 360ml Warm Water
- 1tbsp Olive Oil
- Preheat the oven to 180C 160CFan or gas Mark 5.
- Combine half the water with the yeast and leave for about five minutes. Add the sugar after the first few minutes.
- In another bowl add the flour and baking powder and mix well.
- Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and add the yeast mixture, oil and the rest of the water. Stir well with a wooden spoon.
- Take the dough and place onto a floured surface and form your pizza base. Place into a lightly greased tray and cook for around 30mins.
- Remove from the oven and cover with a tomato sauce base and your favourite ingredients.
- Place back into the oven and cook for another 20 mins.
We had a selection of cheese, ham, pepperoni, sweetcorn, olives and peppers.
The children loved the whole process and cleared their plates.
Cheese! But when I did the elimination diet and couldn’t have cheese, loved roasted peppers and onions. Great post!
Oh no it’s called No Moo a dairy free alternative. X
I’ve never used that one. Good to know! I used Daiya in the past.
Oh I’ve not tried that. I’ve not found a really nice one yet x
You can’t beat a homemade pizza. It’s cheaper and can be healthier as well. I put violife cheese on mine now, it’s dairy free and works really well. I think it may be pizzas for us next weekend.

We have “make your own pizza” nights here too ๐ I like to get creative with my toppings…roast pumpkin, fennel, zucchini “pepperoni”…and always some sort of homemade dairy-free cheese ๐
Oh wow they sound yummy!! I’m going to try pumpkin in mind next time x
We love making pizzas here. Like you say, fab for the children to choose their toppings. Red onion and pineapple! Thanks for sharing #KidsintheKitchen
I love pineapple on mine too!! Two don’t like it in this house unfortunately x
I love everything on my pizza except pineapple. I have just never been able to wrap my head around the sweet mixing with salt. How fun to make these with the little ones! Thanks for linking up with #foodpornthursdays.
I love to mix sweet and savoury but my husband hates it!! I love raisins in chicken curry and he goes mad!! X
